I will truly miss the company of Mrs. Lillian, she was a kind soul who brightned the lives of everyone she met. She loved to see our girls and sadly she never met our newest little one. This community has lost a dear and true friend. Eternal rest, grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.
